Showreel Yannick Barthe 2012

I would like to showcase this 2012 season and I invite you to have a look on my new showreel with the highlights of my work as filmmaker, cameraman and editor. It has always been the passion for video/film, pictures and new interesting projects in aerial disciplines which inspires me, drives me and makes me travel in Switzerland or abroad filming aircrafts, helicopters and other aerial footage.

This year I worked in Norway, the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Belgium and Switzerland. 2012 was rich in meetings, new collaborations and new important documentary projects for which I spent several days of total immersion with the subject and people. I started in January with the filming of two hot air balloons videos with paragliding and skydiving jumps for Honda and Balloon Concept. Followed by the stunning video of an Extra 330 SC doing aerobatics in the Swiss Alps. After that, I've edited a short documentary to cover the project "Eco Trans Canada 2014" of my friend Pierrick Duvoisin. In May I started the filming of this year's main project : I followed Captain Ralph "Deasy" Knittel during his airshows season and made his portrait as the Swiss F/A-18 Hornet pilot and his work as the solo display presenter on airshows in Switzerland and abroad. Beside this work, I've filmed some stunning aviation videos in Waddington (UK), Birrfeld (CH), Sanicole (BE), Axalp (CH) with the Rafale, the F16 and the Swip Team by night, the impressive Chinook, my friends of the Captens, the Breitling Jet Team, etc... and a short-clip for Edelweiss Air. One summer afternoon I've met my old friends of aeromodelling and we filmed a short video of a Yak 55. Remembering my first steps in video 10 years ago ! Now I'm working on a new hot air balloon documentary and new videos for the Patrouille Suisse.

Thank you to all my friends, the pilots, the mechanics, the airshows organizers for all the amazing dreams we have accomplished and the great fun we had along this year 2012.
